Are computer games slowing down the laptop / PC?

I bought a laptop yesterday (not a gaming laptop) and wanted to install a few games on it. Then someone told me that computer games slowed down the PCS a lot. I wanted to ask, is it true that computer games slow down PCS?

A game per se does not slow down a PC / laptop. What can happen is that the hard drive is getting fuller and it takes longer to access the data and the system performance suffers if it is not an SSD.

This is more or less true: /

For the first time, the storage space that is needed. Filling the storage media slows down the PC.

If the PC is now busy for a long time, it eats up the lifetime. The temperatures are also often not very good.

If you only install a few games, you should hardly notice a difference. You just have to switch off that the games run in the background even if you haven't opened them

hope could help.

What if I just install a game like CsGo or Minecraft?

Does that mean that when I install it on an SSD, it doesn't slow down?

I do not want to say at all, but at least you do not notice it because an SSD accesses the data very differently and therefore finds all data much faster than an HDD.
